Language and the African Philosophical Traditions by Kọ́lá Abímbọ́lá

“…Numerous scholars have explored this very question from Africana perspectives: Kwasi Wiredu (1996) explored the philosophical issue of whether there are culturally defined values and concepts; Hallen and Sodipo (1986) examined the question of whether there are unique African indigenous systems of knowledge; Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o (1994) evaluated the role of colonialism in the language of African literature; Oyerò nkẹ ́ ́ Oyěwumi (1997) argued that “gender” is a Western cultural invention that is foreign to Yorùbá systems of sociation; and Helen Veran (2001) argued that even though science, mathematics, and logic are not culturally relative, “certainty” is nonetheless derived from cultural practices and associations. …”

This, in turn, has led to an inferiority complex because, for the most part, we have been defined by others – and not in the most positive of terms to say the least. …”

Expertise and community juridification: Defense of subsoil and communal lands in Oaxaca, Mexico by Salvador Aquino-Centeno

Les quatre éléments dans « Karain » de Joseph Conrad : du mythe au manque by Catherine Delmas

“…The aestheticization of space in the orientalist painting clearly shows the decoy of representation and lets the reader have a glimpse of the reality of colonialism through the cracks of the painting. The four elements are subservient to Conrad’s imaginary vision, whose purpose was to make his reader hear, feel, and see the truth “below the surface of the visible universe” (The Nigger of the Narcissus), “disclosed in a moment of illusion” (Lord Jim) as in a trompe-l’œil. …”
